<t> :doz: <br/> Not quite sure about the negative postings re these players.<br/> <br/> 1. Withers looked excellent to me at the end of last season. Takes the high ball as well as anyone in the SL. Solid defender. A little slow maybe but how fast is wellens? 7/10.<br/> 2. Millard is always very prof...

As reported in todays wigan observer. Does this mean that leuliea (however you spell his name) is not signing.

If so the salary cap situation at the club must be desperate..

:sly:

Naturally there are a lot of messages about possible new signing.

But I for one hope that we get our FAIR share of home matches early in the new season. I believe this was one of the main reasons for us struggling last year.

<r> <E>:lol:</E> Just a couple of points about todays game:-<br/> <br/> 1. our problems are not over yet.still a lot of work to do especially after the first halfs display<br/> <br/> 2. Referee had a splendid game. Good to see those two decisions ie throwing the ball away and stepping of the mark to...

<t>As I have said in previous messages the side lacks creativity in the half back and centres, and will not win anything until this changes.<br/> <br/> Most worrying point for me though was the body language of Ian Millward after the match he seemed seriously gutted and couldnt offer any real explan...

<t>For what its worth here are my views on the squad this season. Please read constructively and comment.<br/> <br/> 1. Radlinski:- still great 9/10<br/> 2. Ashton:- loads of promise but not ready yet 6/10<br/> 3. Calderwood:- lightning fast great player 9/10<br/> 4. Richards:- really a winger (gamb...

<t> :doz: <br/> <br/> Yet again we buy a thirty odd year old australian who is persistently injured.<br/> <br/> I know that any player of any age can become injured, ie hock etc but the odds on one of this age must be higher.<br/> <br/> Name me one australian player around the age of 30 that wigan h...

Dont be fooled by this player again.

He had his chance to come last year and didnt.

He's fishing around for a large contract with another nrl club or even union and is using wigan to assist this.

<t> :doz: Its official no more new signings.<br/> <br/> Question. Will this make us a better team than last season.<br/> <br/> Answer. Yes but not enough to take us into the top 3.<br/> <br/> Solution. A MAJOR new signing was required preferably in the back line standoff/centre.<br/> <br/> Result. 3...

<t> :conf: <br/> Terry Newton has signed a 4 year deal with Bradford and Higham comes to Wigan on 3 year deal.<br/> <br/> This is bad news in my opinion. That is not to say Higham is bad rugby player because he is, but Newton is with Cunningham the best two hookers in the game.<br/> <br/> I am serio...
